it is vary possible that your coil will work it comes from a pentode tube and has the same size cap in parallel with it. I could not find out the voltage from your 6145 tube but mine has a 125 supply voltage to the rf  coil so. all in all I think it will work. heath kit does not tell me the size of my coil but if my math is right it should be around 10.999 mico henerys. so let me know what you think.

thank you for responding to my call.

Bob,

I have a DX-40 here that I think is unusable. If you can find that part on the schematic for it, I will gladly send it to you.

Time is something I don't have, parts from a DX-40, I do have.
